STEP 1. Hardware Install ~ Site Preparation
Site Preparation varies for every customer, and the installation chapter is concerned with
providing requirements and standards for planning and installing the hardware.
1.1 Conducting a Site Survey
Conduct a site survey to ensure you know exactly how much and which pieces of hardware you need to
install. Also see STEP-2 for important information about installing the panels. You must ensure these
requirements are met.
Overall System Architecture:
Since the
System Galaxy Access Control System
is controlled and monitored by the software and
services, you must consider where servers and clients will be installed during your site survey. The
Software and Services are explained in Chapter 1 and 3. But the installation of software and services are
not covered in Chapter 2.
See related sections in
Chapter 1 of this guide
that pertain to
system architecture
and other info you
must consider during planning phases. Also see the
SG System Specification Guide
for requirements
and specifications for the system, PC/Server, Database, OS, IT, and clients.
Technical Certification:
Survey, installation, upgrades, and maintenance/repair of System Galaxy Hardware, software and
peripheral hardware components must be performed by a
Galaxy-certified
Dealer &
Technician
.
See Chapter 1 of this guide for more information on
Compliances and Certifications
